"Ukraine is taking the place of Afghanistan as the place where Congress sends taxpayer dollars to postpone defeat, while calling this a prelude to victory." @ToryAnarchist on how Johnson and Trump learned to stop worrying and love the Blob. compactmag.com/article/mike-j…
“Republicans like Johnson may claim to abjure big government at home, but they embrace the biggest government project of all, war, with the same confidence that progressives have in domestic initiatives.” @ToryAnarchist for @compactmag_ compactmag.com/article/mike-j…
“Nor should we regard efforts to meddle with universities as ipso facto lamentable, any more than it would be lamentable for the public to be worried about how other powerful corporations are acting.” New from Princeton’s Greg Conti: compactmag.com/article/how-a-…
